'''SAIL''', the '''Stanford Artificial Intelligence Language''', was developed by Dan Swinehart and [[Bob Sproull]] of the [[Stanford AI Lab]]. It was originally a large [[ALGOL 60]]-like language for the [[PDP-10]] and [[DECSYSTEM-20]]. The language combined the earlier [[PDP-6]]/-10 language [[GOGOL (programming language)|GOGOL compiler]], essentially an [[integer]]-only version of ALGOL, with the [[Associative array|associative store]] from the [[LEAP (programming language)|LEAP language]]. The first release was in November 1969 and it saw continued development into the 1980s, including a commercial derivative, '''MAINSAIL'''.
